Hi,

Can we create a pixmap in one process and pass it to some other
process to draw on the screen.

You can pass any data that you want from one process to another using
all sorts of different means of communication. How you do this is up to
you. Some options:

Xt Introspection
Shared Memory
Unix Sockets
Internet Sockets
Shared files
